The Parklet Project announced today that they are partnering with T-Mobile to provide 100 Lite Brites to area businesses and nonprofits for the holiday season. The Lite Brites are being donated to Brown Bag Food Project and Dear Santa. A limited number are available for pick up at Grounds for Thought on a first-come, first-served basis. Individuals are encouraged to bring hats, mittens, or socks to be donated to those experiencing housing insecurity.
“We are so excited to be partnering with T-Mobile to support local nonprofits like Brown Bag Food Project and Dear Santa this holiday season,” Councilman Jeff Dennis said following the announcement. “These organizations are doing incredible work here in our community and I’m thrilled we could help connect them with a company like T-Mobile that’s committed to supporting small cities and rural communities across America.”
The Parklet Project announced in September that Bowling Green was one of just 25 cities nationwide to be selected for T-Mobile’s Hometown Grant Program, a partnership with Main Street America and Smart Growth America that aims to help build stronger, more prosperous small towns and rural communities.
